Apollo 1st Gear July 25, 2006 Share July 25, 2006 100,000,000 Nissans produced Posted Jul 24th 2006 5:56PM by Alex Nunez Filed under: Time Warp, Etc., Japan, Nissan Nissan has announced that this past June marked an important milestone in the company's 73-year history: 100,000,000 vehicles built. It all started in 1933 when Nissan, under the name "Jidosha-Seizo Co., Ltd" (Automobile Manufacturing Co., Ltd), manufactured its first automobile, a Datsun 12 (example above). The following year, the company name was officially changed to Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. In 1935, the Yokohama Plant became the first facility in Japan to mass-produce automobiles. The rest, as they say, is history. Today, Nissan produces cars and trucks in facilities worldwide, and aims to continue improving quality and productivity as it sets its sights on future milestones. 100,000,000 is a lot of cars. Many of them were and are basic transportation devices used by the masses. Some of them have become icons in their own right, and today there are future stars on the horizon, demonstrating that as fun as it can be to reflect on the past, Nissan continues to look forward. Congratulations are in order. http://www.autoblog.com/2006/07/24/100-000...ssans-produced/ ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
